Whatever Happened to Robot Jones had WAY too many adult jokes for lasting only 13 episodes
Don’t believe me?
>For starters, Principal Madman looks EXACTLY like Adolf Hitler but fat, is a massive anti-techite, and runs the school like a dictator
>In “Electric Boogaloo” The Yogman Twins use Robot to look in the girls changing room. They end up telling him to have a close range search, resulting in him getting detention
>In “PU to PE” the gym teacher says “For your own good, I am gonna get you wet Jones, one way or another.” when Robot leaves the locker room without showering. Out of context, this sounds messed up.
>In “Vacuum Friend” there is a scene where Robot pulls out a vacuum and sucks his teacher’s dress off.
In “Embarrassment” Robot malfunctions and farts when he sees Shannon, may or may not be a metaphor for him cumming himself.
>In early airings “Growth Spurts” had a banner that said Kickass”.
>The entirety of “Scantron Love” is about Robot attempting to seduce and fuck the answering machine in a closet to get the test answers. But the scantron machine dies of a broken heart after finding out Robot was just using her.
>In “Family Vacation” Robot’s grandpa is having affairs with a ice machine.
>In “Hookie 101” Principal Madman attempts breaking into Robot’s house and spies on his mother, but she calls Dad Unit on him and he beats the shit out of the principal.
>In “School Newspaper” Madman runs out of donuts, so then he eats garbage and it ends up on the newspaper. He then gets coffee spilled on himself but the paper claims he pissed himself. Finally he attacks a vending machine for not working, but the paper made it look like he was having a torrid affair with it.
>In “Safety Patrol” the detention room is basically a Gulag and he sends everyone to it (so basically Robot Jones becomes a communist)

THIS WAS A KIDS SHOW…

Madman has a picture of his wife on his desk, who looks suspiciously like Eva Braun. Robot's best friend Socks has blonde hair and blue eyes, meaning he's Aryan... the plot thickens.

Robot’s grandpa being “racist” against humans is the one I remember, I’m pretty sure he goes on a rant about robots being the superior race and wanting to wipe out humans from existence.

S&P weren’t as harsh back then. All the complaints and trend shifts dictates censorship today. Remember, shit used to be bleeped and everyone celebrated when that stopped.
Adults jokes are in most kid cartoons bc they are made by adults. They keep everyone laughing even when the kids do not understand it, they just know it’s funny or it flies over their heads.

People misinterpret this a lot. The show was never “supposed to end” with Robot enslaving humanity, at least not in the show’s final form.
The creator pitched the idea of the show as being a series showing why a robot overlord ended up taking over the world due to his rough childhood. It was supposed to be a parody of The Wonder Years. The idea of Robot taking over the world was a humorous conclusion idea and wasn’t meant to be a literal shown ending where you see him going scorched earth on humanity.

You need to rewatch it. it wasn't CN's best and the main character is constantly abused, but the Schoolhouse Rock art style and unhinged moments make it worth it.

It was made for children, silly. But kids like stuff that makes it feel like they shouldn't be watching with a little edge pushing, that's why Powerpuff Girls worked.

Mike Lazzo greenlit shit he liked. It turns out, Mike didn't think jokes that were child appropriate were funny.

Lazzo was also responsible for "The Bobby Block Incident" IIRC. If true, than fuck him for the voice change
